So when is it all happening? Performances will kick off at 6:45
p.m. (Pacific Time) every single night from Thursday, Dec. 4
through Saturday, Dec. 13. That means television coverage happens
live every night from 7 p.m. (Pacific)/10 p.m. (Eastern) to 10 p.m.
(Pacific)/1 a.m. (Eastern) every night on CBS Sports Network.
You may not have that channel, so you’ll want to check your programming.
If you’re a Dish Network subscriber, it’s Channel 158.
DirecTV offers it on Channel 221 and Cox Cable has it at Channel
333.
This is also the 30th anniversary of the Finals being in Las Vegas,
so you might want to set your DVR to record the documentary
about the NFR’s move from Oklahoma City to Vegas in 1985.
“Buckin the Odds” will air on Monday, Dec. 1 at 7 p.m. PT and 10
p.m. ET on CBS Sports Network and include interviews with Ty
